Oxford-based Relume Technologies, a manufacturer of LED products and smart grid control systems for outdoor lighting applications, announced that 14 of its outdoor parking, roadway, and service station and canopy fixtures have been approved by the International Dark Sky Association and now have the “Fixture Seal of Approval.”

Said Relume CEO Crawford Lipsey: “IDA approval is just one of many accolades Relume and its products have earned recently, further demonstrating why our patented family of outdoor LED products are the industry standard in North America.”

Recently, Relume was found to be compliant with zero non-conformances in its annual ISO 9001:2008 surveillance audit, and eight of its outdoor pole/arm mounted area and roadway luminaires have been added to the Qualified Products List for the Design Lights Consortium, a list of qualified LED fixtures.

The IDA, a not-for-profit organization that promotes environmentally responsible outdoor lighting and the preservation of the visibility of the night sky, awarded Relume the “Fixture Seal of Approval” after evaluating the photometric data of Relume’s luminaires to ensure that they minimize glare, reduce light trespass, and don’t pollute the night sky.
